It seems to be a piece of cloth glued on a paper structure... i'm curious to know how it is possible to stretch the tissue without deform the structure too muchNice
Could you make a quick summary of the building method & materials in english, here ?

Folded Horn Design
Hi everyone!
I am new in horn design, I am more oriented to the room acoustics, and I have two question!
What is this horn type?
How to design this folded horn, mathematically from star to end (eny reference book or paper)?
This is example of folded horn Carvin Vega subwoofer...
Thanks in advance!

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

I suggest designing as a straight horn first using Hornresp (you will find a thread on it here).
Once you have it designed as a straight horn you will have the cross sectional area versus length dimensions.
You can then figure out how to fold it efficiently into the target volume.
Try to keep the bends as smooth as possible (use curved pieces) especially at the beginning of the horn.

It is most probably a front loaded exponential horn.
Designing horns is great fun. I spend most of my free time doing it. Building horns are much more fun though. Decide on a budget. Find plans that fit your budget. Get the components and start building.
But first you need to decide if you want front or backloaded horns. This will certainly set you back a year or two.

I have found the spreadsheet. But it has Old_calculation and New_calculation
The trick is that the new_calculation is dated 2007 and the old one -2009
Here are the pictures.
Does anybody know where is the new one or the right one?
Maybe someone has the excel available? I googled a lot but couldnt find something.
